Mr SHORTEN (Maribyrnong—Leader of the Opposition) (14:09): My question is to the Prime Minister. Before the election the Prime Minister promised an adult government that would follow due process with a 10-day cabinet rule. Why has the government repeatedly changed its position, thrown out due process and used a crisis meeting on Sunday last night to determine education policy, the exact opposite of what the Prime Minister promised before the election?

Mr ABBOTT (Warringah—Prime Minister) (14:09): The Leader of the Opposition has simply got his facts wrong.
